survival reactions aint just for bikes...
Riding a road that I ride FREQUENTLY... one of my favorite sayings literally popped into my head when I saw this mess -

"You NEVER know" (so go slow!)

wow...

Dude evidently was just out for a nice ride in the country (with his friends and a cute young lady) and didn't realize that you shouldn't go into a '20' at about 75...

based on my 'expert' analysis of the situation - root cause of accident: dumb ass + Oh SHIT = survival reaction which resulted in about 20 feet of a skid and a new fence needed....

oh - and a firetruck, ambulance and sherriff - and a back board for the cute young lady

be safe ya'll - cause "You NEVER know what's around the bend!"











(no motorcycles, or motorcyclists were injured in the making of THIS disaster - timing IS everything)

Let me guess, you just "had" to stop and be part of the drama?

I was wondering about that...you can see his bike casually parked next to the ambulance in one of the pictures.
